EastEnders star Letitia Dean has revealed an unpredictable series of events in the upcoming Dean Wicks
trial episodes.
Dean is set to face court as The Six try to cover up for Linda Carter’s murder of Keanu Taylor at
Christmas, hoping that Dean will be sent down for the crime.
However, Sharon Watts actor Letitia has confirmed that during the trial, things get “out of hand very quickly”.

“I don’t think any of the women could have predicted what happens, but that’s all I’ll say for now,” she teased.
In another twist, Linda baulks from the court, Letitia admitting that Sharon goes into a “sheer panic”.
“It’s her worst nightmare,” she explained. “Sharon thinks Linda is heading straight for the bottle, and all of their chances of freedom are diminishing by the minute every second she is away from that courtroom.
“Expect a lot more drama. It’s far from over!” she added.

Opening up further about the pressure on Sharon and The Six ahead of the trial, Letitia noted that Sharon has “been in fight or flight since Christmas Day” and “desperately needs to close that chapter”.
“The only thing standing in between Sharon and her freedom is the small matter of a murder trial, where she and the rest of the women are going to have to lie through their teeth.”
Recent scenes have also seen Keanu’s sister Bernie point the finger at Sharon – unaware that Linda was behind his death – with last night’s (August 29) episode seeing Bernie throw paint on Sharon and write “murderer” on her door.
“It’s very concerning for [Sharon],” Letitia said. “Bernie is hell-bent on making Sharon pay for the death of her brother, and she’s made it very clear that she won’t let this issue lie.
“We’ve seen Bernie resort to some very low tactics in the past couple of weeks so who knows how far she is willing to go, she’s very unpredictable.”
She also admitted that Sharon could “absolutely” go down for the murder.
“Sharon was the prime suspect only a couple of months back so if the trial doesn’t go to plan, she knows she could easily find herself back under suspicion,” Letitia added.
“Even though they all are in touching distance of freedom, it’s an incredibly risky plan and therefore it would be foolish to think that it’s going to be easy.”
